Welcome to the new Xen.org weekly newsletter with a variety
of information to keep you updated on all things Xen. This newsletter is an
upgrade from my previous weekly communications and is meant to offer a broader
scope of Xen.org activities. Please feel free to contact me with suggestions
for the newsletter.
There will be no newsletter next week as I will be sailing
the Caribbean looking for treasure! The newsletter will return on Friday March
19 (unless I find buried treasure!).
